Scale Question: Marvel Icons vs. Bowen

How do the Marvel Icons compare in scale to the Bowen mini-busts? I really like the DST Electra, but I am worried that she will be badly out of scale with my Bowen pieces.... (I hate that!)

unfortunately the diamond select marvel icons busts are much smaller than bowens busts! i think the icons busts are only about 4" tall! they are still nice pieces though! they will just be too small for your bowens!

I had a few busts sitting around here, so I took this photo to compare the scales of the Bowen busts, the Women of DC busts, the Marvel Icons, and the Star Wars Classics.

Bowens are bigger. Icons are like chess pieces.

I was reallt dissapointed when I saw the Hulk Icons Bust. There's no contest between the Hulk Bowen Busts vs. Icon - the Icon looks like Hulk's little brother.

yes, it's just too small. But he bright side of thinsg is that the cost is less.

Actually, it retailed for about $50 - which for $10-$15 more you could have the Bowen - spend the little bit of extra cash

The icons are small, but still pretty nice. They're shelf worthy IMO.
